A Film Queen

Chapter 337 Another Scheming Woman

Fiona gritted her teeth and glared at Milly. Her eyes were burning with anger.

She had been so focused on cosying up to Jordan that she hadn’t noticed anyone else around. But now, hearing laughter, she realised that the shameless girl she had clashed with earlier was still sitting on the

sofa!

Has this b*tch witnessed my embarrassing moment?

Enraged, Fiona no longer cared about maintaining her image. She glared fiercely at Milly and questioned, “Why are you still sitting here?”

After carefully putting away the island purchase contract Jordan had given her, Milly looked up at Fiona. She calmly replied, “Because this is the only place with a couch. Isn’t that what couches are for? Why shouldn’t I sit here?”

Milly was stating a simple fact. This was a big house, but it was the only spot in the living room with a sofa. The other areas only had chairs.

However, Fiona heard it differently. Especially since Milly was sitting so close to her dream man. Obviously, she was trying to seduce Jordan.

“Don’t you have any manners? This is Jordan’s house. If he didn’t invite you to sit, sitting without his permission shows you have no manners!” Fiona spat venomously.

The atmosphere instantly became tense at Fiona’s accusation.

Moments ago, Anthony and Jonathan had been enjoying the show. Fiona’s outburst quickly soured their moods and their expression turned glum. Who did Fiona think she is, insulting our sister right in front of us?

Fiona was lost in her self–righteous anger. She didn’t notice their change in demeanour and continued, “Mr. Jordan is just too polite to tell you off. Do you really think you own the place?”

Milly chuckled softly and said, “Even if I lack manners, it’s not your place to say so, right? Aren’t you overstepping? Who do you think you are?”

Fiona clenched her teeth. She was shocked at the audacity of Milly’s retort. Her expression turned ashen with rage and she confronted, “Don’t get cocky! You’re just lucky that everyone here is too gracious to call you out on your behaviour!”

Milly raised an eyebrow and asked, “Oh! Really?”

She glanced at her brothers sitting on the stools and asked, “Mr. Jonathan, Mr. Anthony, may I sit here?”

They pursed their lips and felt slightly hurt, but they understood they
